55) Bloodshot

Sabertooth held his head while the veins around his neck became larger and his eyes turned bloodshot once more. He growled like a ferocious animal as small drops of saliva dripped onto the floor. 

"What the hell?" muttered Peter, getting into position.

Sabertooth roared at the sky while ripping away his shirt before charging towards Peter at an incredible speed. 

Peter wrapped up his web and started to swing the manhole around in circles before lobbing towards Sabertooth. A dent in his face became implanted on it as it bounced off his face, but he continued to charge towards Peter as his nose slightly dribbled blood.

Sabertooth now started running towards Peter on all fours, and Peter threw the manhole downward, hitting the very top of Sabertooth's head. He face planted on the ground for a split second while continuing his rush. Sabertooth continued to roar and growl, saliva trickling from his mouth.

"Does he have rabies?" yelled Peter in fear and shock. 

Peter slung himself on a nearby wall as Sabertooth came closer. "Ha, what now?" he mocked before Sabertooth started to dig his claws into the wall and run across it towards Peter.

"HUH?" yelled Peter in complete surprise before swinging over to the opposing building as Sabertooth slash barely missed. 

Sabertooth leaped into the air towards Peter, who quickly crawled out of the way as he crashed through the building, leaving a cloud of dust. He quickly peaked out of the hole, looking around, before setting his eyes back on Peter and continuing to dig his claws into the building and crawl across it towards him.

As Sabertooth tried to stab Peter, he crawled around them as holes appeared all around him. Peter kicked Sabertooth in the face, but the flurry of stabs continued. 

Peter quickly crawled away, making some distance between the two, and as Sabertooth went for a slash, Peter narrowly let it past before standing up sideways and kicking his other shivering arm, causing him to fall towards the ground.

Sabertooth stopped his fall by digging both his claws into the building, and as he looked up, a foot planted right on his face. Peter jumped off his face, landing behind him, and he shot a flurry of webs towards him, trapping Sabertooth against the wall.

Peter dusted his hands and started to walk away. 

"Get in!" exclaimed Hawkgirl, jogging towards Peter in glee.

Sabertooth groaned loudly as he started to push back against the snare of webs. Small strands started to snap at first, but then more and more broke as Sabertooth roared before falling to the floor. 

Peter looked back and sighed. "When will you stop?" he said as Sabertooth growled in response. 

Sabertooth picked up a nearby car and launched it towards Peter, who just looked up, confused, as it flew over his head behind him. Peter looked back at Hawkgirl, who was standing in the open. 

"Shit!" Peter muttered as, using both hands, he webbed up the car and pulled back against it as he fell backwards and the car crashed onto the ground.

Sabertooth had charged right past Peter and directly towards Hawkgirl, who started to sprint back to cover.

Peter's eyes widened as he started to swing after Sabertooth. Peter webbed up a nearby fire hydrant and started to swing towards Sabertooth, who used his claws to catch it, before throwing Peter through a nearby building as dust fell all over his suit and slamming his head against a sink. Peter rubbed the back of his head before picking himself back up and slinging his way back into the streets.

Sabertooth was in full pursuit of Hawkgirl, and she was trying to run away the best she could, but Sabertooth was closing in on her fast. 

Sabertooth lifted the truck holding up Behemoth's body and threw it in front of Hawkgirl. She turned around and saw Sabertooth getting ready to slash her to pieces. 

Peter landed on his shoulder, and using all his strength, he kept Sabertooth from slashing Hawkgirl. The claws almost directly touched her face as Peter struggled to hold him back as she shivered in fear. 

"SHOOT HIM!" Peter groaned as he continued to struggle to keep Sabertooth from slicing Hawkgirl. 

Sabertooth tried to sab with his other set of claws, and Peter used his web to hold that bay too. The arms started to become closer towards Hawkgirl as she quickly readied her bow. 

An arrow went through Sabertooth's eye, and as he groaned in pain as the blood shot forward over Hawkgirl, he stabbed Peter's leg with the opposing arm as the metal claws went right through. 

Sabertooth roared and threw Peter to the ground as blood continued to leak out of his leg.

An arrow pierced through the back of Sabertooth's throat as he bit down, snapping the metal arrow, thrusting his claws through Hawkgirl, and lifting her into the air as blood dribbled down on Sabertooth's arm onto the floor. Hawkgirl spewed blood over Sabertooth's chest, and she groaned in pain before being flung onto the ground and holding her wound.

Sabertooth roared at the sky again before slowly taking out the arrow from his eye as blood spluttered out. Peter stood up as his leg wobbled slightly, glaring at Sabertooth, who returned the favour. 

"I'll stall for time; you try to run!" asked Peter. 

Sabertooth's eyes became normal once more as he held his head before looking back towards Peter and Hawkgirl.

"I told you not to make me angry," said Sabertooth. 

"That was nothing," replied Peter.

Sabertooth looked towards Peter. "It's over, and you know it," he replied. 

"I wouldn't be too sure!" exclaimed Hawkgirl as another arrow pierced the back of Sabertooth, followed by a ticking sound.

"BANG!" added Hawkgirl with a small grin.

Sabertooth's eyes widened before he lunged towards Peter. "I'M TAKING YOU WITH ME!" he yelled.

Peter tried to jump away, but his leg wouldn't move as he started to tumble to the ground as a set of claws pierced his waist.

Peter could see the fear in Sabertooth's eyes before the arrow on his back exploded, eviscerating half of his body as the metal claws retracted and he fell to the floor, lifeless.
